For all the readers of Astronomy Magazine who saw our recent advertisement for our Comet ISON tracking from the dark skies of Manitoulin Island, it appears we will have to wait for the next comet of the century as ISON has not faired well from it's close encounter with the sun!
However the Norther Lights are still a beauty to behold and they are indeed visible from Manitoulin Island from time to time.
Gordon's Park on the eastern shore of the island has been designated by the RASC as a dark sky preserve and with Paul Beduhm working on location with his camera always near by we will post Northern Light Images for you here immediately as they arrive from Paul!
